After I installed FreeBSD, I had to re-install Windows 95 and (thanks to Bill Gates) it overwrote the FreeBSD installation of the "Boot Easy" thingy. So, I eventually ended up re-installing FreeBSD -- ugly, so I was hoping there was an easier way. BTW, I did check the FAQ and didn't see anything (plus I looked for files with *boot* in the name in the man pages: sections one and eight, but no joy...) :-( Regards, web... -- William Bulley Email: web@merit.edu Merit Network Inc.
